The Independent National Electoral Commission on Saturday boasted that it had “murdered” and “buried” rigging and other forms of electoral malpractices in the 2023 election with the signing of the Electoral Act 2022, the Bimodal Voter Registration System and other strict measures launched ahead of the 2023 general elections.

The commission also expressed optimism that next year’s general elections would be free, fair, credible and free of corruption.

The Chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, represented by the Deputy Director, Voter Education Provider, Election Monitoring and Observation, Chukwuemeke Ugbaoja, said this at a breakfast seminar organised by the Christian Men’s Fellowship, St. James’ Anglican Church in Abuja.

The seminar was tagged, ‘Let’s talk Politics 2.0’, with the theme, ‘2023 and beyond: leadership, politics and citizenship engagement’.

Yakubu said, “With the Electoral Act 2022, we have murdered rigging of elections in this country; we have buried it. I want to tell you with all authority that was the greatest thing that has happened to this country.

“There is no way anybody can vote two times in this country again. It is not possible. The machine is there, you bring your voter card, and they match it to the machine because your name and particulars have been configured into that machine.

Have you cleared up the multitudes of foreign names you registered at Omuma in Imo state from the voters register?

If anything, Buhari takes a big credit for the significant changes we've witnessed in the way our elections are conducted. They're, admittedly, becoming more and more credible with every passing poll.

Only snag is the umpire's inability to sufficiently confirm the authenticity of the results of the contestants before their names get on the ballots. Notwithstanding, we'd get there eventually.

What naivety? Are you ok? Have they buried violence and vote rigging? Even in us,rigging is possible.

This is a lie......


We know that INEC gets intimidated by these politicians....

Their integrity failed when they decided to include names of people who never took part in the last primary election that was conducted..... Especially under this APC party... INEC doesn't even have muscles to speak about credibility when they've shown signs of failure....

And they shouldn't even use Osun as an example because this was a setup to lose Osun and win the presidential election.
